He lays out the desire and affection of the holy prophet David, whose goal was to dwell with God, face to face. In this he lifts the reader to heights of sweetness concerning the object of the Christian’s desire: dwelling with God through Christ.
Such a sanctuary of thought is a high mountain of blessedness and causes the feet of our meditation of God to run like hind’s feet on high places upon the mountain of spices (Psalm 18:33; Hab. 3:19; Song 8:14). This is a work worthy to reflect and digest to find refreshment for the soul which will be enlivened to new heights of holy contemplation.

Richard Capel (1586–1656) was a puritan divine and fiery preaching of the Gospel, who was invited to sit on the Westminster Assembly.
In this masterful treatise on temptation, Capel explains... More > what temptation is, what it means that one is drawn aside into temptation, what being enticed to sin means, and what it means to be tempted to lust (lust being a hinge for all temptation). He gives general rules for dealing with temptations, as well as specific remedies to fight against them. He shows that no temptations can be won over without the power of Christ through the Spirit, and how that work is accomplished in God’s people.
A most excellent section to this treatise is Capel’s vivid depiction of how one sin will give way to other sins; a section worth its weight in gold to the glory of Jesus Christ.

Christopher Love (1618-1651) was a fiery and practical Puritan preacher.
How does the Christian overcome sinful temptations, and fight successfully against the kingdom of darkness lead by the Devil... More > himself? In this work on Ephesians 6:13-17, Christopher Love explains how the armor of God gives the reader a stratagem to wage war against the Devil and his darkness. Love shows the nature, power, and cunning deceit of Satan, the great enemy of our salvation, and subsequently demonstrates the means by which every good Christian may withstand his dreadful assaults. One cannot engage in spiritual warfare unless they know the weapons of their warfare, which are not earthly, but spiritual. Love will show Christians what those weapons are, and how to use them effectively against the assaults of the Devil.

Thomas Watson (1620-1686) was one of the most highly esteemed nonconformist Puritans of his day, as well as being an extremely popular preacher.
Watson explains what the biblical privileges of the... More > Covenant of Grace are for a believer. He demonstrates that such privileges are in fact benefits lavished on the Christian by the work and ministry of Jesus Christ, through his life, death, resurrection and present intercession. It is impossible to divorce the privileges of a believer as a redeemed individual with the connection he has with Christ in the Covenant of Grace. Christ’s covenant, ministered to the believer through faith, is the mode in which the believer will obtain all the benefits offered.
After explaining his main text, “All things are yours,” (1 Corinthians 3:21), and expounding the twelve royal privileges of a believer, he spends the last third of the work showing important inferences which evolve out of this doctrine.

His main text is, “All things are yours,” (1 Cor. 3:21), and he expounds twelve privileges of being in covenant with Christ. Then he shows the important inferences which evolve out of being in covenant.
Finally, he completes the work showing all the duties that a believer should exercise knowing, now, that he has received such privileges from Christ in the Covenant of Grace.

Paul Bayne (1573-1617) was a famous puritan divine, used by God for the conversion of many puritan giants, such as Richard Sibbes. He was celebrated as a powerful and intense Reformed preacher.... More >
From Ephesians 6:10-18, Bayne teaches the reader what it means to wear the armor of God in the most profitable manner. He shows that the world, the flesh and the devil fight vigilantly against the Christian to pull him down to hell. Being in battle means a wise Christian must be about preparatory work, or the Christian will in fact be unable to fight effectively. Christians must prepare themselves before the day of temptation actually arrives. Fully clothed with the armor, one submits themselves to God, and the devil will ultimately flee – though not without a violent fight.
